    Simple Slow Cooker Pork Loin

    Confession time... I've been so busy with work and the conference that last week I barely had time to cook. We ate out a record breaking 3 nights in a row. I know, I know *hanging head in shame* but hey, I do my best. These things will happen.

    Well Saturday I was determined NOT to eat out again. So in the afternoon I pulled out the trusty crock pot and made up this quick meal. To my surprise the husband LOVED it. I was shocked as he normally hates slow cooker meals AND I tried a completely different spice combo, for us anyways.

    Here's what I did...

    Ingredients

    • 1 small sweet onion chopped
    • 1 cup brown rice (180g)
    • 1 15oz can diced tomatoes
    • 1 15 oz can of chicken broth
    • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
    • 1 teaspoon cumin
    • ½ teaspoon all spice
    • Pork Loin (We used 2 about a pound each)

    Instructions

    Put all ingredients in the crock pot.

    Turn on high.

    Wait 3 hours.

    Eat.

    Seriously, that was it. the rice was perfect. If it cooked any longer I think it would have been glue but the 3 hour mark was ideal.

    If you want to make this on a day you will be away longer then 3 hours, I'd use a timer. I'm not sure of the time on low or how the rice would turn out. You Crock-pot veterans out there will have to chime in.

    Here's a little before and after cooking shot.

    No nutritional info on this one. It will depend on your pork loin size. I got around 6 servings from it and enjoyed the leftovers at lunch today. 🙂

    Oh and I have to add that the next day I made homeamde sauce and meatballs and today I have lean burgers cooking on the George Foreman. I'm on a roll! 😉

      I find with recipes that call for rice in the crockpot, if I use brown rice instead of white, it is perfectly cooked. So much so that the people in my house who don't love brown rice don't notice that it isn't white rice.

      i made my own version of this last night and it wowed a crowd!! i made this "hawaiian style" by adding a can of pineapple chunks instead of tomatoes and a couple of chopped jalapenos, some ginger, and cumin and an onion. it was absolutely delicious!! without your recipe to give me the guidance it never would have happened! a definite keeper you should try it out! thanks roni.

      Thanks so much for this great recipe! I've never added rice to any of my crockpot meals before so this was my first one pot wonder. I had to modify the spices a little to use what we had on hand (cumin, oregano & garlic powder) but it tastes fabulous and I can't wait to have the leftovers for lunches this week. Thanks again! 🙂

      I find whenever my routine changes what's most difficult is finding time to cook because if I don't plan ahead, I'm screwed.

      Just wanted to pat you on the back for 3 home-cooked meals in a row! I've never tried making brown rice like that in the crock pot. I'm inspired by you once again. Thanks, Roni!
